ROS v4.0 beta 1 http://www.mikrotik.com/download/CHANGELOG_4
Dude v3.0 http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/MikroTik_Dude/Changelog

P.S.: to download v4.0 beta 1, select “development” type from dropdown

http://www.mikrotik.com/download/routeros-md5-3.17.txt the file does not have md5 . please fix it.

Awesome, lots of good bug fixes in the 3.17 release.

I hope we will finally get to see support for IPSEC interface’s in the 4.x series, that would allow us to sell a lot more Mikrotik kit to clients, we generally run “route based” aka “IPSEC Interface” vpn’s for our clients from a central concentrator then use OSPF accross the IPSEC interfaces to handle all the routing. By having this feature it will allow us to keep our Juniper J23XX and FortiGate concentrators and use Mikrotik at the edge.

Also in http://www.mikrotik.com/download.html the dude package is dude-3.0rc3.npk but in http://www.mikrotik.com/thedude.php the dude is http://www.mikrotik.com/download/dude/3.0/dude-3.0.npk

v4, hmm, Hopefully it gets n, mimo, and openvpn UDP support, as well as the ipsec support. Then I can sell the hell out of these damn things!

I wish for complete torrent downloads… the past 5-6 versions have had missing files every single time.

I also wish for the forums to not come to a crawling hault at times like these.

How to upgrade to 4.0b ? Only Netinstal?

@changeip, agreed! my torrent downloads are both at 99.61% and 94.92%, and the forum has been very sluggish if not completely unreachable. could barely post this reply.

MetaROUTERs? Anyone have some details on that one, don’t see any mention of it in the Wiki or Forums, Google pops up a couple results but not sure if they would apply.

i confirm both torrents are broken :confused:

MetaROUTERs? perhaps new routerboard hardware? or a MPLS type of routeros operation?

Is RouterOSv3 documentation going to be updated before 4.0rc1 is released?
There still are a few sections still missing.

Both torrents have some files broken, others files finish.
Since the weekend has already started in Latvia, we might need to wait until monday for it to be fixed.

3.17 torrent has atleast these files broken:
netinstall, all routeros combined images, xen
4.0b1 torrent broken files:
CHANGELOG_rc, routeros-mipsbe-4.0beta1.npk, routeros-x86-4.0beta1.npk
4.0b1 good files:
mikrotik-4.0beta1.iso, netinstall-4.0beta1.zip, routeros combined (mipsle & ppc), xen

MetaROUTERs ??

Any good docs?

I dont want to sounf like a complete NOOBe but …

wondering what the MetaROUTER is as well… could it be some form of virtualisation? maybe it also means that hot standby routers with automatic configuration mirroring is coming?? hmmmm…

Similar to Xen, but MetaRouter is used for the RB400 series boards to create a
virtual routers. Go into the ‘/metarouter’ menu and there you will find the
info. When creating a new router you only need to specify the amount of RAM,
it will automatically choose how much disk to use.

Haven’t had the time to play around with it…

If this is a bandwidth issue I know there has to be other Mikrotik users out there willing to seed. Maybe a pre-release to a few select customers that are willing to seed these?

Time Elapsed: 2:01 hours. Progress 98.4%

It’s been stuck there for 1 hour and 45 minutes.

same there…

torrents
routeros-ALL-3.17 @ 98.4%
routeros-ALL-4.0beta1 @ 99.6%

no seeder??? and lot of leechers??? :confused: :confused: :confused:

i dont think its as much as not having seeders as it is a properly setup .torrent file… or checksums incorrect. this has happened on the past 5-6 torrents posted, so what happened then? MT had to repost ?

The whole problem is mikrotik creates the .torrents and never seeds them at the start…

So I do the same thing I do for every release.. I download the files off the website and have the torrent re-scan the files to verify them and it causes my torrent client to seed what I can.. I would be able to seed everything but the changelog that’s posted on the site is never the same that is included in the .torrent.. and the way the .torrent checksum’s are calculated using 256k chunks it causes some of the other files to be marked incomplete..

Thanks for whoever helped seed today. I had to leave before I finished downloading all the files from latvia at 4k..

I’m runing the Swedish mirror and are downloding from that one and are seeding that files.

Downloading torrent at 10Mbps until 98.6% then it stopped dead with my torrent client saying the ports are closed. We have no ports blocked!
